Chapter 136 Seeking Death
Chapter 136 Seeking Death
Not only did they fail to save the man, they were also captured by the guards who had been hiding at the city gate. These people dressed as ordinary people directly bit through the poison hidden in their teeth.
Luoying knocked the last man unconscious with extremely fast hands, leaving him no chance to commit suicide by taking poison.
"Wait!" Mo Yunyao shouted, "I can release him, and you release me too. How about a fair trade?"
"You are the sixth prince of Northern Qi, and Madam Bu is just a wet nurse. How can she compare with your noble status?" Luoying sneered.
"If I die, she won't be able to live!"
"Then I'll pay with my life." Luoying said indifferently.
Mo Yunyao's breathing tightened, he took a deep breath and glared at Luoying, and finally he compromised: "I can let him go."
Luo Ying then pulled Mo Yunyao up from the city wall and put a knife to his neck: "Tell me, where is the person?"
……
The auspicious time has arrived
Lu Jingning was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe and a crown on his head. He walked up the stairs step by step, and finally stood at the highest point, overlooking everyone.
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
Wherever she looked, everyone knelt on the ground and saluted her.
Lu Jingning raised his hand in the air and said in a steady voice: "Stand up!"
Standing in the sun and accepting everyone's kneeling worship, it seemed like a lifetime ago. Listening to Changxi talking about the ceremony, she followed suit. Many complicated procedures had been cut out, but it would still take at least five or six hours.
Offer sacrifices to heaven and earth and worship ancestors.
Kneel again and again.
After the last word of courtesy, Lu Jingning breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your Majesty, we have found the person." Xue Yuan carefully helped Lu Jingning into the inner hall and said with a frown, "I have brought him back to the palace. He is not injured. He seemed to be a little frightened. He has recovered after drinking the tranquilizing soup."
Lu Jingning nodded and told Xue Yuan: "Send someone to keep an eye on it, don't let anything go wrong."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty." Xue Yuan helped Lu Jingning take a hot bath to relieve his fatigue. She stretched and her brows relaxed.
After hearing that Madam Bu had woken up, Lu Jingning decided to go and see for himself.
After waking up, Madam Bu sat on the couch and smiled foolishly, laughing out loud from time to time, but she looked a little crazy when she saw Lu Jingning.
"It's you, you kidnapped me, you bad guy, what on earth are you going to do!"
Old Madam Bu screamed in agony, her face full of horror.
Lu Jingning frowned: "Go and bring Mo Yunyao up."
"Yes."
After a moment, Mo Yunyao was brought up.
When he saw Lu Jingning again, she was already wearing the dragon robe. He was stunned for a moment and blurted out "Aning".
"How dare you! Who gave you the guts to call His Majesty by her maiden name?" Xue Yuan shouted angrily.
Mo Yunyao pursed his lips with a complicated expression.
She actually became the empress of a country.
"The art of disguise came from you, Mo Yunyao. You are so bold that you dared to ask someone to imitate me to scare Madam Bu!"
Mo Yunyao then noticed Madam Bu's crazy look, but he didn't deny it. He quickly looked away and looked at Lu Jingning: "Your Majesty, how about we cooperate?"
Lu Jingning bent down and sat down, and asked with interest: "Your life was saved by me. You can't even protect yourself. How can you cooperate?"
"Because my mother is a favorite concubine."
"Favorite concubine?" Lu Jingning sneered, not taking this trump card seriously at all.
Mo Yunyao added: "Your Majesty may not know that I have been learning skills outside since I was young. Not only can I change my appearance, but I can also know destiny and predict the future."
The last sentence directly caught Lu Jingning's attention. She raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Mo Yunyao calmly.
"Bad guy, bad guy!" Old Madam Bu fainted from excitement.
Lu Jingning sighed: "Let the imperial physician come!"
"Yes."
She stood up and left. Mo Yunyao was also brought out. When no one was around, Mo Yunyao stared at Lu Jingning and said, "Your Majesty actually saved me twice. I should repay you for saving my life. Your Majesty, I really want to help you. There are too many people coveting this position. The Emperor of Southern Liang is no match for Northern Qi. Northern Qi has millions of soldiers and many generals with great military achievements. Southern Liang has already been in tatters for a year."
This is true.
Mo Yunyao continued, "If Your Majesty helps me conquer Northern Qi, I can guarantee that I will never invade Southern Liang in my lifetime."
Lu Jingning didn't say anything.
"How about I give your Majesty ten cities and ten heads?"
In the night, the hazy moonlight shone on her, emitting a soft halo, but her eyes were extremely gloomy.
"How can I easily believe your words? Will the Sixth Prince show some sincerity?" Lu Jingning asked back.
Seeing that she was relieved, Mo Yunyao secretly asked happily: "What do you want to know?"
"Of course it's about the fortune of Northern Qi."
Mo Yunyao hesitated for a moment: "According to the fortune, the one who will ascend the throne is the Seventh Prince. The Seventh Prince is both civil and military, and his grandfather was a general, so he is very popular."
"What about the Northern Qi crown prince?"
"The prince died a violent death."
Lu Jingning turned around suddenly, his eyes dark, "Nonsense, the one who ascended the throne is obviously the crown prince, how dare you lie to me!"
She gave Mo Yunyao one last chance.
He pulled out a sword from the guard and stabbed it into Mo Yunyao's heart without hesitation.
There was a sharp pain in his heart. Mo Yunyao was dumbfounded and stared at Lu Jingning blankly: "You..."
"Don't blame me if I didn't use the opportunity I gave you. You are the first person I killed after I ascended the throne. Mo Yunyao, remember to be careful when you reincarnate in your next life."
Lu Jingning withdrew her hand and wiped the blood with a handkerchief in disgust. She didn't want to kill Mo Yunyao so quickly.
But he knew too much and had to kill.
